Aysgarth Falls - Yorkshire Dales - Waterfalls

This is our visit to Aysgarth Falls in the Yorkshire Dales. You can also see many other videos on my KZbin Channel at / ww2dynamite
Aysgarth Falls are a triple flight of waterfalls, surrounded by forest and farmland, carved out by the River Ure over an almost a one-mile stretch on its descent to mid-Wensleydale in the Yorkshire Dales of England, near the village of Aysgarth. The falls are quite spectacular during wet weather, as thousands of gallons of water cascade over the series of broad limestone steps.
Aysgarth Falls have attracted visitors for over 200 years; Ruskin, Turner and Wordsworth visited, all enthusing about the falls' outstanding beauty. The upper and middle fall was featured in the film Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.
In addition to the falls, there are walks which wind through the wooded valley, offering views of the river and falls. Wild flowers appear in the spring and summer, and wild birds, squirrels and deer may also be seen. Nearby is St Andrew's church, which has a large churchyard, reputed to be the largest in England. The church has a medieval painted wooden screen rescued from the destroyed Jervaulx Abbey.
The name originates from old Norse, meaning the open space in the oak trees.
It was featured on the television programme Seven Natural Wonders as one of the wonders of the North.

If you look in the small pools beside the river there are recently hatched fish about 1/8 in long.

the stick fight scene between Robin of Locksley and John Little "Best man of the woods" is why I'm watching this video. I fully intend to re-enact the whole scene word for word step for step. Prince of thieves best movie ever!!!!!
